Chakra Balancing

The core of our energetic system are the Chakras. These are the etheric energy vortexes of the spiritual body. The discovery of these centers and their importance was discovered many thousands of years earlier but are only slowly being recognized here in the West. These vortexes are responsible for distributing all of the spiritual energy into our bodies. When these centers are operating correctly we are healthy, happy and we are free to operate at our peak potential. If during our lives, we experience significant trauma at either a physical or a mental and emotional level, these vital centers can become blocked or unbalanced. When this occurs the quality of our physical, mental and emotional lives suffers. It can be as if someone turned off the power in our lives! Unless these centers are restored we can "limp" along for great lengths of time. Eventually, these centers may restore themselves to partial or full power on their own. The tragedy is that this may take years or never occur fully.

Chakra Balancing

Chakra Balancing can restore this power in days or weeks! There is a great deal of misunderstanding around the nature of our life experience. The core of our physical health as well as our mental and emotional well-being is not just contingent upon physical and environmental factors. These certainly play a part but they are not the most important component. An easy way to understand this is to think about the quality of the energy that enters any appliance. For any modern appliance to run correctly there must be sufficient voltage and amperage available. In many ways, the chakras are the power transformers of the True Source of life. People often think they receive energy from their food, oxygen or sunlight. The simple fact is that we need Life Force from the chakra system to be able to utilize these components in the physical body. A healthy chakra system means peak utilization of the worldly sources of energy as well as vital for emotional, mental health. One of the most encouraging facts about the chakra system is that no matter how long it has been neglected, it can be restored. Unlike the physical or mental systems, this energy system does not degrade over time. It is much like a circuit breaker that was triggered. We can simply "reset" each chakra and the balance and power begins to return immediately. To achieve maximum effect it usually takes multiple sessions to be restored to full power. This allows the individual to gradually adjust. There are no negatives or consequences to this restoration. Most people are living their lives in a state of diminished potential. Restoring the possibility of full potential is only natural and positive!

The Root Chakra

This chakra is located at the base of the spine. It is the first chakra to fully develop after we are born. It is responsible for the coordination and strength of our lower part of our body. Mentally and emotionally, it stores our belief systems about being safe and powerful. If during our early life, from ages of birth to six years old, we are raised in a loving household and feel unconditional love from our primary caregivers most of the time, we will have a deep and unwavering sense of self and belief that we are safe. However, most of us have experienced certain levels of trauma in our early lives. If we were raised in a household where there was marital strife between our parents, mental illness, addictions, sexual or physical abuse we will feel a deep sense of uneasiness and doubt. The root chakra is the databank for all information having to do with safety. I have heard many say that all fear results from an inefficient energy flow through the root chakra. I'm not sure I agree with that completely but I do know that those who experience high levels of anxiety, fear depression and anger most likely will display low-energy coefficients in the root chakra. Simply by clearing the chakra, many of the feelings of uneasiness, anxiety, self-doubt and depression are often eliminated or deeply diminished.

The Sacral Chakra

The second chakra is located in the lower abdomen about 2 inches below the navel. This chakra is the base and foundation of our emotional body. It is responsible for our abilities to relate to others and and governs our creative ability. It is also responsible for the energy within our spleen, liver, bladder and sexual organs. This chakra is the second to mature and events in a person's life between the ages of 6 and 12 years old have a tremendous impact upon its formation. Any trauma during this time will have an adverse effect on the creativity potential and socialization abilities. The health of the chakra has enormous impact on our sense of well-being in Relationships with others and our ability to channel our creative and ambitious ideas and bring them into reality. Any imbalance will dramatically affect our ability to coexist with others and to be happy and satisfied with ourselves.

The Solar Plexus

The third chakra is located in the center of the upper and just below the rib cage. This is referred to as The Power Chakra. This is the chakra that "turns on" at puberty. In the body, it governs the PANCREAS, metabolism, muscular system and the nervous system. When balanced and clear, we have the ability to focus our intentions and control our emotions. When this chakra is activated at puberty, we begin the process of moving from adolescence to adulthood. Any imbalance within this chakra and in the first two Chakras will be exaggerated because of the increase in personal power. This is why the transition at puberty is often difficult. Balance in this chakra allows us to control our desires and drives in a predictable way. Conversely, in balance leads to either explosive thoughts and behaviors or an inability to motivate ourselves and sustain action. Our unconscious feelings of self worth, strong or weak, are evident in the expression of this center.

The Heart Chakra

The fourth chakra is the heart chakra and is located in the center of the CHEST beneath the breastbone. This chakra is the central energy center within the body. Here, the upper and lower chakras converge and a "Consciousness Bridge" between the physical and spiritual world is formed. This chakra is motivated and empowered by Love. Balance in this chakra allows for compassionate action and unconditional, unselfish love. Any imbalance leads to self-centered behavior and selfish action. This chakra is responsible for the thymus gland which is the center of the immune system. It is also directly responsible for heart and lung health. Free flowing and balanced energy is necessary for health and all the chakras but in the heart chakra particularly it is vital for a healthy circulatory system and heart. Holding resentments "clogs" the energy flow in this chakra and creates stress on the heart and lungs as well as the entire body. Because of the central importance of this energy center, releasing old hurts and injuries is absolutely vital. The spiritual principle of Forgiveness clears the energetic degree from this center. Forgiveness is not about letting anyone else "off the hook." It is about freeing you! Holding a resentment toward someone to punish them is the equivalent of you drinking poison and waiting for them to die. Forgiveness is about releasing ourselves from the old slow-moving energy like guilt, shame, regret that blocks the energy flow in the Heart Chakra. When this chakra is healthy, balanced and clear we are able to appreciate and enjoy our lives. It automatically regulates the energy flow in all the other chakras. When this chakra is blocked, we are unable to feel compassion and any imbalances within the other chakras are exaggerated.

The Throat Chakra

The fifth chakra is located in the center of the neck. This is the center of the will and dominates our ability to communicate and focus attention. This is the center of our expression of will. This center is responsible for the expression of wisdom and balance within our interactions with others. In its healthy state we are able to feel comfortable and satisfied with our choices. When the center is unbalanced or blocked, we will chronically feel unsatisfied and this state often leads to trying to dominate others. Physically, unbalanced and blocked energy in the throat chakra will lead to sore throats, thyroid issues, ear infections and DENTAL issues. The primary gland associated with this center is the Thyroid.

The Third-Eye or Brow Chakra

The sixth chakra is located in the center of the forehead slightly above the bridge of the nose. This is the energy center that is responsible for heightened intuition and clairvoyance as well as other psychic gifts. When this center is balanced and powerful we are able to experience "good luck" more often. Of course there is no such thing as luck, good or bad but when this center is operating effectively, we seem to come up with better answers about choices and are able to stay on track toward our goals and to sidestep troubles more easily. Advanced psychic skills such as the ability to see auras are also enabled by a fully empowered and balanced sixth chakra. The glands associated with is center are the pineal and pituitary.

The Crown Chakra

The seventh chakra is located in the center of the top of the head. The centers responsible for our sense of connection to all that is responsible for our sense of worlds beyond the physical dimension. When the center is balanced, we have a high sense of connection not only with the world and everyone in it but also the world's in the realms beyond this one. We feel a deep connection with a power greater than ourselves and many of us speak of that power as God. When the center is unbalanced. We do not feel connected beyond this world and as a result are often very competitive and aggressive toward our environment and each other. This is the state of materialism and of highest expression of ego.

Spectro-Chrome Light Therapy

Spectro-Chrome Light Therapy is a very subtle and powerful technique using specific frequency lenses to alter vibrations within specific parts of the body. We use low intensity lights combined with specially designed colored lenses developed by Darius Dinshah. These lenses were the result of 40 years of research measuring the effect of different color frequencies on the mental, emotional and physical bodies.

Light frequencies are used to subtly shift the harmonic patterns within the body and mind.

This process over time creates new default set points that restore the overall balance in an individual. Because these frequencies are applied in such gentle and subtle way, the individual undergoing treatment feels the restoration of a healthy mind and body gradually. This process is particularly helpful in restoring an overall feeling of well-being.

Seasonal Affected Disorder or SAD is the syndrome

That many people experience in the winter months or when they are deprived of natural sunlight or long periods of time because of living or work conditions. Light Therapy is a very effective tool in shifting the mental and emotional patterns of people who are adversely affected because of natural light deprivation.

Energetic Life Coaching

Energetic Life Coaching is the process of teaching people how to handle the energy in their daily lives efficiently and effectively. Most of us are unaware of the subtle impact of the way we think and the things that we do on our overall energy. As a result of this, every day ways of doing things and the way we think often create inefficiencies and problems. A more complete understanding of how we direct energy with our minds and actions leads to a much more predictable and successful experience of life.

In the past few decades there has been great advancement in awareness that how we think and feel has a direct impact on our overall effectiveness and health.

Learning specific skills about how to manage the distribution of our mental and physical energy through the way that we think can be enormously rewarding. Energetic coaching is an integral part of everything we do here at LIFE FORCE PRACTICES. We are spiritual, mental and physical beings. An accurate working knowledge of the interrelationship of these three bodies is crucial for a successful and predictable life.

We address this issue in all of our therapies so that each person can become more and more effective in attaining the results in their lives that they intend.

Fortunately, there are set laws in place in this Universe. The laws governing manifestation are crucial for everyone to understand how to get what they want. The correct use of these laws and techniques are an integral part of everything we do here at Life Force Practices.

Hypnosis

Hypnosis and NeuroLinguistic Programming (NLP) are some of the most advanced and efective ways to permanently eliminate deep seated fears and phobias as well as long term debilitating habits such as over eating and smoking.

Many of our core beliefs were set deep in our minds in the first 5 years of our lives.

These beliefs were imprinted from the beliefs and the behaviors of our parents, siblings, teachers and other authority figures as well as our own personal experiences. Research has shown that the brainwave activity of children in the first 5 years of life are identical to the brainwave activity of adults under hypnosis 95% of the time the young child is awake. This is the mental pattern referred to as Alpha. Alpha is the brainwave programing pattern for the mind. This accounts for the phenomenon of children being like "sponges" and being so impressionable, absorbing everything around them. Once a belief is accepted in their minds, it becomes true for that child whether it was intended or not. For example, if a child is told often enough that they are "bad", that can become a core belief and no matter what they do later in life, that core belief will still have power and afect their self image and can create a pattern of internal criticism and "self sabotage" regardless of the quality and efort that they may put into their work and their lives. The feeling of "never being enough" is often the result of this kind of belief.

Once a child reaches the age of 6 or 7, their brainwave activity increases and now they spend 93-95% of their waking hours in the adult thinking pattern referred to as Beta.

In this state they can acquire knowledge and information but the core beliefs about their value, abilities and self worth are mostly unchanged.

All our beliefs are held within the subconscious mind and are not easily changed from the conscious waking state.

Hypnosis is a technique that slows the brainwave activity of the mind down to the Alpha frequency and we experience the deep relaxed state that we feel just before we drift of to sleep. While in this relaxed state, we are fully conscious but much more open to suggestions and we can change the core belief systems to reflect our desire for happiness, confidence and success. When we return to our natural waking state and thinking pattern, we will begin to notice a shift in the way that we feel about ourselves and changes in the habits, beliefs or fears we came in to treat. In time and with repetition, this new information will become their core belief. Hypnosis duplicates the process of how everyone ever learns and under the guidance of a skilled hypnotist we can make the exact changes that fit our needs and desires today.

Our Vision

The core of all existence is Life Force.

At Life Force Practices, we believe that to achieve a happy and rewarding life, each of us must balance and strengthen every aspect of ourselves.

Life Force is that intangible and yet undeniable energy that makes us who we are at a physical, mental and emotional level.

In the past, much attention has been place on the nature of physical and mental health and to a much lesser degree on increasing Life Force.

That is changing and we are happy to be a part of the ever increasing awareness.

The Life Force System is as real and vital as any of our physical or mental systems and now is receiving the long overdue attention as a requisite for overall health and happiness.

We recognize the need for a cooperative and comprehensive approach that values the all three levels of Spirit, Mind and Body and often work closely with all health professionals.

To be truly happy and fulfilled, we must nurture and strengthen each of these Vital Bodies.
